Cellini Classico Riserva
(2.33)
The best of specially aromatic varieties from Tuscany and Umbria were selected for this Italian blend. The tellow of excellent Virginia grades harmonized with the dark reflections of black cavendish. A fragrant orange bouquet of delicately cool aromatic brilliance guarantees superb smoking pleasure.

Cellini - Classico Reserva.
Please note, I've posted the same review for Planta-Cellini Classico Riserva, and Cellini-Classico Riserva, as I'm unsure as to which of the two is the correct one to use.
Never, in my pipe smoking life, have I stumbled across such a horrible smelling blend: cheap sweets, fondant, and sugar!
Well, when I lit it, I hated it at first, but after a short while I began to almost like it, and after a longer while I actually found myself enjoying it! Yes, the flavour profile is comprised mainly of oranges, but there's also a slight vanilla touch, with a subtle grassiness in the background.
There isn't much nicotine to be had from this: it's mild at most. And the room-note's pretty good: fruity, peachy, and there's not too much smoke.
As I said, I do enjoy this, but it couldn't go into my rotation; I could only smoke it VERY sporadically.
Two stars.

For the lovers of a good aromatic, Cellini can provide a cool and easy smoke. The pouch aroma is of red fruits and vanilla. Nicely cutted, it comes in pouches not too dry or too moist. Easy to pack and light, this baccy burns evenly. NO
I gravitate more towards VA flakes and English Blends, so I find this to be too sweet for me. I would say I would smoke it once in a while, specially if my girlfriend is around, because the room note is really pleasent.
Apart from that, it's cheap enought and accessible enought. If you like ARO you will enjoy this. For me, it's more like an occasional thing.

A pesar de las reseñas negativas Cellini clásico no es un mal tabaco sino que sencillamente tiene un aromatizado un execivo y no es tan notorio durante la fumada. La humedad es perfecta. El corte en cintas largas y medianas deja ver qué está hecho con tabaco de calidad. Virginia, cavendish, creo que recrea perfectamente el estilo italiano que uno espera encontrar de sabor a naranja salvaje. Se quema sin ninguna dificultad por lo que requiere una fumada lo más lenta posible. En definitiva un tabaco sin estridencias para fumar las veces que se quiera si es que se gusta de los aromatizados fuertes. Buena nota de ambiente, suave, sabor bastante lleno aunque se aplane promediando la fumada.
